Volume 5 Zhongnan Storm Chapter 46 Family Misfortune

At 22:30 on the day, about 15 minutes before the bombing begins...

In Hedong City, southwest of Hanoi, a convoy is rapidly heading south to the Tonglin Air Force Base in southwest of Chiang Kai-shek. Sitting in the bulletproof car is Vietnamese President Wu Sanming and his eldest son Wu Yujie.

Under the arrangement of Cia, Wu Yujie returned to Hanoi early on the 28th and met his father who was commanding the battle.

After listening to his son's story, Wu Sanming was shocked.

Subsequently, Ruan Liangyu appeared at the Vietnamese Embassy in the Republic and issued a "Letter to the Vietnamese People". Wu Sanming immediately made the decision to go to Ho Chi Minh City.

Within the next hour, the father and son took action separately.

Wu Sanming summoned all the generals and senior officers who were loyal to him, arranged a combat operation to encircle and suppress Li Mingjie, and asked all troops to defend Hanoi and never evacuate without authorization. Wu Yujie was responsible for arranging the work of his family to Ho Chi Minh City. In addition to taking away a lot of fine and soft materials, he also arranged a convoy to transport foreign exchange and precious metals from the Vietnamese treasury.

After nightfall, the father and son left Hanoi by car.

The convoy lasted about an hour before Wu Sanming breathed a sigh of relief.

"Father……"

"I didn't expect that Ruan Liangyu had gone to China and defected to China." Wu Sanming breathed a sigh of relief and turned his eyes to the eldest son sitting beside him. "Maybe, you can explain the reason."

"Father. I..."

Wu Yujie seemed very embarrassed and hesitant.

As the eldest son of Wu Sanming, Wu Yujie was called the "Prince Prince" by Vietnamese. Among the 2 wives and 7 sons of the place where the two wives were born, Wu Yujie was the most important place. Wu Yujie was sent to Moscow by Wu Sanming and received education from the elites of the Soviet Union (the Soviet Union had not yet disintegrated at that time). Two years later, the Soviet Union collapsed. Wu Yujie returned to London for one year and was sent to London by Wu Sanming. At the age of 18, Wu Yujie was admitted to Cambridge University to study international relations. Later, Wu Yujie returned to China and received annual militarization training. He entered the Vietnamese army with the rank of major. According to the arrangements of Wu Sanming, Wu Yujie would become the leader of Vietnam's future country. At this time, Vietnam-US relations improved greatly. In 2005, at the age of 27, Wu Yujie went to the West Point Military Academy in the United States to further study and systematically study the tactical ideas of the US military. During this period, Wu Yujie was instigated by Cia.

But Wu Sanming never knew that his son was already a spy in Cia.

Wu Yujie would not tell his father that he raped a Vietnamese student in the United States because of his indecent behavior. He was caught by Cia. Then he was trapped in the beauty trap and became a "senior spy".

After returning to China, Wu Yujie served as the commander of the 19th Mechanized Infantry Division of the Hanoi Garrison (the division was the only fully mechanized armored unit in Vietnam, with a combat effectiveness above the 7th Armored Division). He then served as the director of the Vietnam Army Military Intelligence Bureau. Wu Yujie was arranged for Hu Zhicheng to monitor Ruan Liangyu.

In the following years, Wu Yujie kept following Cia's instructions.

On national issues, Wu Yujie has always advocated the "China threat theory" and claimed that China's goal is to recapture the Nansha Islands and the South China Sea territorial waters. To this end, Vietnam must build a military force that is sufficient to ensure national security and national interests. To achieve this goal, Vietnam must cooperate with the United States, introduce weapons and equipment from the United States, and learn tactical ideas.

I have to admit that Wu Yujie's analysis makes some sense.

The issues of Nansha and South China Sea cannot be delayed forever, and will have to be resolved sooner or later. Since the dispute cannot be resolved through peaceful means, the only thing left is war.

Wu Yujie's views just meet the political needs of Wu Sanming.

As a military president, Wu Sanming's power base is the Vietnamese army. If he cannot achieve any achievements in military construction, Wu Sanming is likely to be replaced by Ruan Liangyu and Li Mingjie and lose his dominance over Vietnam. Even if he does not have a son, Wu Sanming will strengthen military construction.

The only thing Vietnam can rely on for military modernization is the United States.

With the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia was unable to take care of itself. Vietnam could not receive large amounts of free military aid as before. The weapons and equipment of European countries were very expensive and Vietnam could not afford it. China has always been wary of Vietnam and would not sell advanced weapons to Vietnam.

Wu Sanming had no other choice but to move closer to the United States.

Using the Army Military Intelligence Bureau, Wu Yujie also eliminated many political opponents for his father.

Wu Yujie played a crucial role in Wu Sanming's power system.

On private issues, Wu Yujie not only persuaded his father to send his brothers to the United States to study on the grounds of "advanced American education", but also encouraged his father to invest in the United States and gradually transfer his assets to the United States.

Over the past few years, the assets transferred to the United States through Wu Yujie exceeded 150 yuan.

After the economic crisis broke out, Wu Yujie accelerated the transfer of assets, and Wu Sanming also realized that the war would break out soon, allowing other children to stay in the United States in various ways (some have obtained American nationality).

In order to consolidate Wu Yujie's status, the United States spared no effort to provide strong assistance to Vietnam.

It can be seen that Cia not only instigated Wu Yujie, but also prepared to support Wu Yujie as the throne of the President of Vietnam, thereby achieving complete control of Vietnam.

.

Before the war broke out, Wu Yujie provided Wu Sanming with a large amount of "false" intelligence.

According to the information provided by Wu Yujie, Wu Sanming not only knew that Laos was about to undergo a military coup, but also knew that China would send troops to suppress Laos' military coup. Although Wu Sanming did not want to break out with China on the Lao issue, under Wu Yujie's lobbying, Wu Sanming believed that China would encircle Vietnam through Laos and send troops to overthrow the Vietnamese regime when the time was right. What made Wu Sanming even more convinced was that China was deepening reforms and would not have a full-scale military conflict with Vietnam. As long as the Vietnamese army took the lead in entering Laos and controlled the situation in Laos, China would accept the fait accompli.

The root of a very wrong strategic judgment lies in Wu Yujie.

The day before the Laos coup, Wu Yujie set off to leave Hanoi and head for Washington on the grounds of "negotiation of military aid".

After a few days, even if Wu Sanming was a fool, he could guess Wu Yujie's "identity".

After being watched by his father for a long time, Wu Yujie breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The information is provided by Cia~, after all, the United States is our ally."

"Alliance?" Wu Sanming smiled faintly and said, "Do you think the United States is really an ally of our land?"

Wu Yujie was late and said, "The problem is, we have no other choice."

Wu Sanming smiled bitterly. What else can I say about the misfortune of the family?

"Father..." Wu Yujie knew his father's character very well. "The United States not only issued a timely warning so that we could leave Hanoi calmly, but also promised to provide us with more military aid."

"Is that true?" Wu Sanming's expression looked a little better.

"In one month, the United States will provide equipment of at least ten infantry divisions and thirty infantry divisions within half a year. I have proposed to allow the United States to provide military training assistance." Wu Yujie showed a very firm look and said, "Arriving in Ho Chi Minh City, we will be able to obtain combat troops of twenty divisions.

After receiving US military aid, we can fight back to Hanoi in half a year or at most one year!"

Wu Sanming smiled faintly and said, "Do you think it's so easy to fight back to Hanoi?"

"I……"

"If we could get back to Hanoi so easily, we wouldn't have to go to Ho Chi Minh City." Wu Sanming breathed a sigh of relief and asked again, "How are our assets in the United States dealing with?"

"All of them were deposited into banks in several countries as you told me."

Wu Sanming nodded. "This is our foundation. China will definitely help Ruan Liangyu capture Hanoi and get rid of Li Mingjie. Even if China will not send troops to attack south in the short term, as long as Ruan Liangyu has the ability to control the situation in the north, it will win the support of most people. In three years, maybe two years, we will have to leave Vietnam."

"Impossible, Ruan Liangyu is just a civilian official, he..."

"He has the full support of China. He fights with Ruan Liangyu, which means fighting with China. Even if China does not send troops, he can still use military aid to give Ruan Liangyu a strong enough army." Wu Sanming shook his hand, "When there was a conflict with Li Mingjie, we have lost the hearts of the people. No matter what, we have to be prepared to leave Vietnam."

"Father……"

Wu Sanming closed his eyes and did not talk to his eldest son again.

Wu Yujie shut up, with a hint of fear in his hesitant expression.

The convoy continued to move forward and rushed towards its destination.

At this time, the first group of attack aircraft of the Air Force had dropped bombs and missiles on the defense forces of the northern border areas of Vietnam, and the bombing operation officially began.

At 22:50, the army's direct long-range artillery troops entered the battle.

In just over an hour, the Air Force dispatched nearly 400 combat aircraft and threw nearly 000 ammunition at the Vietnamese army. Hundreds of large-caliber artillery and heavy rocket launchers fired hundreds of rounds, and nearly 100,000 artillery shells and rockets were fired at the Vietnamese positions.

The suffocating fire strike kicked off the Republic's Army's march into Vietnam.

After 23 o'clock, the Navy Air Force's combat operations began.

The C111th Battalion, which launched the first round of attacks, launched long-range ground-attack missiles at Luzon, Mindulo and Palawan Island in the Philippines over the South China Sea. Subsequently, H-6m bombers affiliated to HNA launched hundreds of air-launched cruise missiles at more than 20 other Class A targets.

Because the Philippines does not have a decent long-range air defense system, the first ones bombed were military bases.

The USS Republic aircraft carrier combat group, which is operating in the northern waters of the Nansha Islands, dispatched carrier-based fighters, first attacking Philippine naval ships entering the South China Sea, and then bombing the islands occupied by the Philippines.

At 23 o'clock, the first Marines left the landing fleet by helicopter.

Unlike in the past, the International Radio and Television Station did not conduct "live reporting", and the combat operations of the Nansha Islands and reefs occupied by the Philippines in the early morning of the 29th made relevant reports.

International public opinion suddenly became an uproar, and the Philippines became the fourth country involved in the war! (To be continued,)
